This Gorgeous Boathouse Brings Opulent Accommodations to London's Canal

— September 3, 2018 — Art & Design
The Boathouse London is a wonderfully opulent but unabashedly rustic luxury boathouse, located on a floating park in London's Paddington Basin, that offers a truly unique accommodation experience in a gorgeous setting right in one of the world's great cities.

This particular luxury boathouse was envisioned by Cara Louise Furby as part of a collaboration with MADE.com. The boathouse features an array of high-class amenities such as a large bedroom and bathroom, a rooftop entertaining area, a fully-equipped bathroom and designer fixtures throughout. Guests can even hire a boat captain to give them a tour of the Grand Union Canal, or utilize the space to host parties and other events.

At $282 a night, this boathouse is clearly a luxury accommodation space, but its liberal use of wood and other earthy materials lends it a wonderfully rustic aesthetic.
